Each story is the result of a deep passion for the sea which can become the inspiration to recover the true strong values which distinguish the relationship between the man and the natural element. From Aristotele Onassis to Gianni Agnelli, passing through S.A. Karīm Aga Khan and Larry Ellison, the challenge and attention to the sea gave birth to unique boats, presented to the audience through wonderful images.

Photos, projects, memories recall the last decades of boating, by highlighting the business, handmade and talent skills which have given birth to an excellent Italian and international industry.

Guglielmo Miani, President of Associazione MonteNapoleone, says with satisfaction:

We can’t forget that Milan is considered the most “naval” city of Italy for the number and quality of its shipowners and enthusiasts. Here, we have some of the most important planning studies of the world. The event, after the success of the first edition, wants to grow and indulge this great passion of the city.
